Priapeia

Priaepia

by divers poets in English verse and prose. Translated by Sir Richard Burton and Leonard C. Smithers

  1. Comes hither stealing for its penalty's sake:
  2. Steal he as please him: I will see him not.
  1. This, with his snout aye alert to uproot the lilies a-blowing,
  2. Slain for thy victim 's the pig bred in the stye's tepid reek.
